This Room/Patterns (2017), Emilie Crewe14 minutes 42, HD video

Synopsis:Performed by Anne HansenThis Room/Patterns is based on the concept of a barnacle: an encrusted species, permanently attached. A hermetic, elderly woman reflects on memories, antiquities and the space around her. Nine windows of moving images are arranged simultaneously to create a video collage.

“An older woman feeds on what surrounds her. Personal archives are organized as a stockpile in the closet, centered on a focal object: the piano. She makes things. She counts seconds as she presses flowers, cataloguing the petals in the dictionary. Keeping time, everyday iteratives are woven with fragments of the past. All the while, the outside world eludes as she is anchored to the 9th floor.”

My grandmother, Anne Hansen (b. 1931, Princeton, British Columbia, Canada), plays the role of the hermetic, elderly woman. These are her artifacts, her histories and little moments. Some moments are staged; others are not. She can be heard playing the piano: gentle, elegant and not perfect.
